Oil cooler clearance problem

Hi guys!

I'm trying to install my new oil cooler but have some clearance issues. There is a sensor that blocks my AN-fittings. Anyone knows what sensors is in the picture below? Top left.

Dont mind the arrow, its the connection and sensor on top left I'm wondering about.

Thanks for your input! I've got a LS2 block, would that make it different? Forgot to mention that the picture is not mine.

There should be another threaded bung a little higher up that you can move it to. In most cases you can angle the knock sensor a bit to clear the oil line fittings. However it looks like you're knock sensor may be a little different, hard to tell as I can't see the whole thing.
